Works for me.

Comment 9 Alexander Todorov 2010-06-15 10:33:51 UTC
anaconda 13.21.50 (0610.n.0 tree). No such traceback with the Workstation variant. Install completed successfully. Moving to VERIFIED.

Comment 10 releng-rhel@redhat.com 2010-07-02 20:48:48 UTC
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Beta 2 is now available and should resolve
the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed
with a resolution of CURRENTRELEASE. You may reopen this bug report if the
solution does not work for you.
